This has already been done in FXSL.

FXSL is a set of XSLT templates written in pure XSLT (the XSLT 1.0 version
uses just 1 -- xx:node-set() extension function only, the XSLT 2.0 version
does not use any extension functions).

So FXSL is not an extension library. FXSL runs with any XSLT1 processor
(either supporting EXSLT or having its own xx:node-set() extension function)
or any XSLT 2 processor.

Therefore FXSL fulfills perfectly your requirement.
